Sec.  35.017-3  Using an FFRDC.

    (a) All work placed with the FFRDC must be within the purpose, 
mission, general scope of effort, or special competency of the FFRDC.
    (b) Where the use of the FFRDC by a nonsponsor is permitted by the 
sponsor, the sponsor shall be responsible for compliance with paragraph 
(a) of this subsection. The nonsponsoring agency is responsible for 
making the determination required by 17.504 and providing the 
documentation required by 17.504(e). When permitted by the sponsor, a 
Federal agency may contract directly with the FFRDC in which case that 
Federal agency is responsible for compliance with part 6.
